thsologigal/ 

It  is  believed  that  this  book  will  meet  a  w^it^tflilSn  has  long  been  felt  by  Superintendents 
of  Sabbath  Schools,  and  others  who  select  hymns  and  music  for  children  to  sing.  There  have 
been  two  difficulties  with  most  of  the  Sabbath  School  hymn  books  that  have  been  published : 
First,  the  hymns  have  been  "  too  old  " — above  the  comprehension  of  young  minds :  second, 
the  music  has  been  either  too  difficult,  too  tame,  or  has  been  arranged  so  high  as  to  be  entirely 
beyond  the  reach  of  children's  voices.  It  will  be  found,  upon  examination,  that  these  difficul- 
ties have  been  avoided  in  this  book.  A  large  proportion  of  the  tunes  have  been  composed  and 
compiled  expressly  for  the  words ;  and  the  publisher  and  editor  are  both  greatly  indebted  to 
S.  B.  Ball,  Esq.,  one  of  the  most  popular  and  successful  teachers  of  vocal  music  in  Boston, 
for  very  valuable  aid  in  this  department.

1.  Earth,  Sea  and  Sky, three  miustreU,  sung  God's  wisdom,  love  and  power;  While  choirs  of  angels  stooped  to  hear,  And  Ueaven  blessed  the  hour.

Slcy,  witb  his  bright  and  starry  crown, 
Amnnw  the  first  was  found  : 

He  sung  with  most  enchanting  voicfr— 
A  voice,  without  a  sound. 


Sweet  was  the  choral  symphony  ; 

But  yet  there  wanted  one 
To  strike  the  chord  of  God's  free  grace, 

To  errinur  mortals  shown. 


Next,  Sea  from  his  uplifted  waves, 

Sent  forth,  in  mighty  roar, 
His  wilUn*  trihute  to  God's  praise. 

Which  died  along  the  shore.

Ear\h,  too,  with  all  her  purling  rillfl. 

And  eroves  of  breezy  pine. 
Her  feathered  tribes,  her  flocks  and  beids, 

Joiaed  io  the  scng  divine. 


Christ  spake  the  word —  man  heard  the  call — 

The  aged  and  the  ynung. 
The  high,  the  low.  Redeeming  Love, 
With  kindling  rapture,  sung. 


Sing  on  !  Man,  Earth,  and  Sea  and  Sky— 

Sing  on  !  ye  ininsfrel-!  four  ! 
Of  wisdom,  goodness,  grace  and  power. 

Till  time  iibail  be  no  more.

But,  ere  long,  thou  shalt  see 

An  offering  more  costly,  Mary, 
Poured  out  on  Calvary. 


This  kindness  thou  hast  done  me,  Mary, 
My  servants  shall  mal?e  known, 

Throughout  the  world,  wherever,  Mary, 
The  gospel  trump  is  blown. 


Though  mammon  thee  would  hinder,  Maiy^ 

He  loves  the  poor  so  well ! 
Yet  cease  not  thine  anointing,  Maiy, 

'Tis  for  my  burial. 


Tby  love  I  will  remember.  Mary, 
When  earthly  ties  are  riven  ; 

And  thou  shalt  have  a  mansion,  Mary, 
Near  to  my  own  in  heaven.

Music  from  NATIONAL  PSAli 


2<l  time. 


1.    To  the  wand''riiig  and  the  weary,  Everywhere,  on  land  and  sea,      Jesun  calls,  In   tones  of  mercy, '' Come  untc     me,      Comp  un-to        me."

From  our  home,  our  household  altar. 
Where  our  father  hends  the  knee  j 

Oft  we  hear  a  voice  inviting, 
"  Come  unto  me." 


When,  at  night,  upon  our  pillow. 
We  have  prayed  our  prayer  to  thee, 

Then  we  feel  the  word,  unspoken, 
"  Come  unto  me." 


Oft  we  hear  it,  when  our  teachers 

Talk  to  us  of  Calvary; 
In  our  hearts  the  call  re-echoes, 

*'  Couie  unto  me." 


When  we  pass  death's  trouhled  river, 
Calm  and  peaceful  it  will  be; 

If  we  hear  our  Saviour  calling, 
•'  Come  unto  me."

If         she  wouhl  tell  uie  whmice  she  came.  And  she  re  plied,  '*  I  grew."  )

1       did,  and  listened     a  gtiod  while  ;  At  last  she  whispered,  "(jOD."  )

to  ray  face.  With  such  a  modest      smile.  That     I     sat  down  close  hy    its  side.  To     talk  to      it      a  -  winle. 

still,  I  ask.  Who  made  you  ?  will  you  tell  ?  She  opened  wide  her  deep  blue  eyes.  And  said, 'dear  child,!  will." 

vi  -  o  -  iet ;  She  told  the  truth,  I    know;     For,  sure-ly,  none  but  11 E  could  make  So  sweet  a  flow'r  to  grow. 


THE    CHILD    AND    THE 

1  Mother,  T're  been  to  see  the  Bower, 

Which  in  the  field,  I  found. 
And.  would  .you  think  it .'  there  it  lay, 

All  withered,  on  the  ground. 
I  kneeled.  »nd  put  my  ear  close  down 

Iteside  it.i  lowly  bed, 
And  asked  what  ailed  my  drooping  flower, 

And  sonietliiiii<  whi<)iered —  '•  dead  '" 

2  The  "^lilll  Hinds  stirred  its  withered  leaTW| 

At.^  thus.  tl>ey  seemed  to  say 
**  Sweet  Hower.  it  makes  us  sad  that  toott, 
So  «ooti.  Uaat  pa<8«U  away 


FLOWElt        Part  2d. 

■When,  o'er  my  poor  dead  violet, 

My  tears  fell  like  the  rain  ; 
It  whispered  to  me,  "  Child,  weep  not. 

For  1  .shall  live  again." 
8  Say,  talked  the  Hower.  or  did  the  wlada 

Utter.their  passing  knell  ? 
Or,  was  it  my  own  soul  that  spok*? 

I'm  sure  f  cannot  tell 
It  was  the  spirit's  voice  —  and  if 

The  dead  Hower  shall  revive  ; 
Our  Hesh  we  may  jield  up  in  bope, 

Some  other  day  to  Uve.

THE    LONE    ROSE. 

TO  THB  TUME  OF  CHILD'S  PRATER.     Page  26. 


1  Deep  in  the  wood,  where  none 

But  cruel  huntsmen  roam, 
A  rose  most  beautiful 

Kloomed  in  its  humble  home. 
I  pitied  the  lone  flower, 

With  none  its  sweets  to  share, 
And  ne'er  a  passer  by 

To  say  "  thou'rt  wondrous  fair  !** 
And  then  I  said  :  tell  me,  oh  flowery  queen, 
Why  Grod  has  set  thee  here,  to  bloom  unseen  ? 

2  Here, as  I  silent  sat. 

The  forest  birds  drew  nijih, 
The  squirrel  ventured  forth, 

Ami  frisking,  passed  me  by  ; 
And  e'eu  the  rabbit  leaped 


Forth  from  his  hidden  bower ; 

Yet  none  of  them  would  stay 

To  gaze  on  that  sweet  flower. 
Again  I  asked  her  if  she'd  tell  me  why 
God  placed  her  there,  unseen  to  bud  and  die  ? 

8  At  length,  she  turned  to  me 
With  such  a  Heavenly  look, 
And  from  her  honied  cells 

A  thousand  odors  shook — 
"  I  will" — and  then  in  tones 

As  sweet  as  childhood's  said, 
"  I  bloom  alone,  because 
Me  for  himself  God  made  ; 
And  'tis  enough  (say,  is  it  so  with  thee  ?) 
To  know  that  God  is  pleased  to  look  on  me." 


#    A    LITTLE    WHILE,      to  the  tune, 

1  A  little  while,  saith  yonder  sun. 

And  my  care«»r  of  light  is  run  ; 
The  moon  sends  back  the  sad  reply. 
And  all  the  stars  that  deck  the  sky — 
*'  A  little  while." 

2  The  cedars  of  Mount  Lebanon, 

The  miiihfy  rivers  flowins  on, 
The  teeinins  earth,  the  circling  years, 
Upf^n  them  all  this  word  appear 
••Aliitle  while." 


"  HE   KEEPETn   ME."     Page  69. 

3  Oh  thou,  vain  man  !  who  look'st  abroad 

Upon  these  mighty  works  of  God, 
Canst  thou  from  death  exemption  claim? 
Ah,  no  !  the  word  is  still  the  same — 
"A  little  while." 

4  Child,  in  the  Sabbath  School,  though  now 

The  flush  of  life  is  on  thy  brow, 
Yet,  gaily,  as  thou  passest  by, 
Plainly  the  warning  I  descry— 
'•  A  litt*e  while.."

Like  the  sound  of  the  sea  swells  their  Chorus  of  praise. 
Round  the  star  circled  crown  of  the  ancient  of  days, 
And  thrones  and  dominions  re-echo  the  strain 
Of  glory,  Eternal,  To  Him  that  was  slain. 


Dear  Saviour  may  we  wi?b  our  voices  faint 
Sing  the  Chorus  celestial  with  angel  and  saint  ? 
Yes  !  Yes !  we  will  sing;  and  thine  ear  we.  will  gain. 
With  the  song  of  Redemption — the  Lamb  that  was  slain. 


Now  children  and  teachers  and  friend><  all  unite 
In  a  loud  Hallelujah  with  the  ransom 'd  in  light; 
To  Jesus,  we'll  sinir  that  melodious  stiain. 
The  song  of  Redemption — the  Lamb  that  was  slain. 


•  This  mav  be  snntc  by  solo  voices.    If  it  is  suns  in  Chorus  it  should  be  very  soft,  as  an  echo  of  the  preceding  strain.

1.  When  I  would  be  a  Christian,  There  was  something  in  the  way,  Which  said,"  You'd  better  put  it  off  Until  some  other  day;" 
2.  First,  Passion  came,  with  cheek  so  red,  And  told  me  to  get  mad;  For  such  an  one  said  so  and  so,  And  was'nt  it  too     bad?

Tbpn,7v«ry  came,  with  evil  eye, 

And  told  me  I  was  poor ; 
And  that  the  daughters  of  the  rich 

Had  dresses  —  what  a  store  ! 
And  then,  I  said  I  would  not  care 

If  they  had  thousands  more. 

Hinder  me  not,  hinder  me  not  I

Next,  came  one  with  a  lofty  look, 

I  knew  his  name  was  Pride; 
I  will  not  tell  you  what  he  said. 

But  I  am  sure  he  lied. 
0,  T  never  could  pet  rid  of  him, 

Until  aloud  I  cried  : 

Hinder  me  not,  hinder  me  not !

And  next, there  danced  before  my  eye 

Pleasure,  with  all  her  train  ; 
She  said,  if  I  would  jro  with  her. 

She'd  ease  me  of  my  pain. 
There's  something  better.  I  replied, 
Which  I  intend  to  gain  ; 

Hinder  me^ot,  binder  me  not  1

But  her  sorrows  quickly  fled 

When  she  heard  his  welcome  voice : 
Christ  had  risen  from  the  dead  ; 

Now  he  bids  her  heart  rejoice : 
"What  a  change  his  word  can  make, 

Turning  darkness  into  day  ! 
Ye  who  weep  for  Je>us'  sake, 

He  will  wipe  your  tears  away. 


He  who  came  to  comfort  her, 

When  she  thought  her  all  was  lost, 
Will  for  your  relief  appear. 

Though  you  now  are  tempest-tossed, 
On  his  word  your  burden  cast, 

On  his  love  your  thoughts  employ  j 
Weeping  for  awhile  may  last. 

But  the  morning  brings  the  joy.

When  will  the  moment  come, 
When  I  shall  lay  my  armor  by, 
And  dwell  with  Christ  at  home.

No  peaceful  shi'luring  dome  : 
This  world's  a  wi;dernes>  of  woe— 
This  world  is  not  my  home 


3  To  Je«us  Christ  I  sought  for  rest; 

lie  bade  me  cease  to  roam. 
But  fly  for  succor  to  his  breast, 
And  he'd  conduct  me  home. 

4  Weary  of  wandering;  round  and  round 

This  vale  of  >in  and  gloom, 
I  long  to  leave  the  unhallowed  ground, 
And  dwell  with  Christ  at  home.

And  ri-ail  and  learn  the  holy  book; 

And  oil!   my  heart  doth  feel  the  while 

That  (iod  is  pleased  on  us  to  look.

O  Lord,  tin-  blessing  we  implore; 
We  meet  to  read,  and  sin^',  and  prav, 
Be  with  us,  tiieu,  through  this  Uiy  day. 

2  Our  fervent  prayer  to  thee  ascends. 
P"or  parents,  teachers,  toes,  and  IriendB, 
And  when  we  in  thy  house  a  ppear, 
Help  us  to  worship  iu  thy  tear.

May  we  above  to  glory  soar; 
And  praise  thee  in  more  lofty  strains, 
Where  one  eternal  Sabbath  Veigus. 

Q  S.  M.    [The  Sparrow's  Nest.  p.  27. 

1  Did  Christ  o'er  sinners  weep '? 

And  shall  our  cheeks  be  dry? 
Let  tloods  of  penitential  grief 
Burst  forth  from  every  eye. 

2  The  Son  of  God  in  tears! 

Angels  with  wonder  see! 
Be  thou  astonished,  oh  my  soul, 
He  shed  those  tears  tor  thee. 

3  lie  wept  that  we  might  weep; 

Kach  sin  demands  a  tear; 
Iu  heaven  alone  no  sin  is  found, 
And  there's  no  weeping  there.

WnF.x  daily  I  kneel  down  to  pray, 
As  1  am  taugiit  to  do, 
God  does  not  care  lor  wliat  I  say, 
Unless  l/ctl  it  too. 


\    Tet  foolish  thoughts  my  heart  beguile; 
And  when  I  pray,  or  sing, 
I'm  olten  thinking,  all  the  while, 
About  some  other  thing. 

0 1  let  me  never,  never  dare 
To  act  a  trifler's  part, 
Or  think  that  God  will  hear  a  praver 
That  comes  not  ft-om  the  heart. 

But  if  I  make  his  ways  my  choice. 
As  holy  children  do. 
Then,  while  I  seek  him  with  my  voice. 
My  heart  will  love  him  too.

A  gentle  guide  they  had, 

Who  called  them  to  his  knee. 

And  taiigiit  tiiem  how  to  sing 

The  song  of  Calvary. 
Is  it,  I  said,  the  loving  John  I  see? 
"Oh  no !  "  they  quick  replied,  "  it  is  not  he." 

2  Now,  on  a  verdant  bank. 

Where  bright  flowers  bloom  for  aye, 

They  deck  the  brow  of  him 

Who  b'essed  them  in  their  play. 

The  words  of  heavenly  truth 

t)ropY)ed  with  such  wonderous  power, 

Tliat  tlieir  young  spirits  grew 

A  life  time  in  an  liour. 
<Tho  can  the  guide  of  those  dear  children  be? 
Is  it  the  ardent  Peter  V  "  No,  not  he." 

3  Then,  to  a  living  stream 

They  gathered  witii  their  guide, 
'  And  sought  the  precious  gc-ma 

That  burned  beneath  the  tide. 

Encouraged  by  his  smiles, 

They  ventured  more  and  more, 

And  shouted  as  they  brought 

Their  treasures  to  the  shore. 
That  faithful  guide,  his  name,  pray  tell  itm6 
bay,  is  it  Paul?  "  Oh  no.  it  is  not  he." 


4  This  happy  band  on  earth 

Once  tarried  for  a  day, 

Then,  borne  on  angels'  wings. 

Up,  hither  took  their  way. 

While  here,  they  little  knew, 

Except  a  mother's  love; 

But  now  have  surely  found 

A  better  friend  above. 
Oh,  tell  me  who  that  better  friend  mav  be? 
Is  it  the  Lord  ?  "  Oh  yes !    0  yes !  'Us  He !  ♦»

4  Pr.iyer  is  the  contrite  sinner's  voice, 

lietuming  from  his  ways ; 
While  angels  in  their  songs  rejoice. 
And  cry,  "  Behold,  he  prays." 

6  Prayer  is  the  Christian's  vital  breath. 
The  Christian's  native  air, 
Bis  watchword  at  the  gates  of  death; 
He  enters  heaven  with  prayer.

\  Mine  eyes  and  my  desire 
Are  ever  to  the  Lord  ; 
I  love  to  plead  His  promises, 
And  rest  upon  His  word. 

1  Turn,  turn  Thee  to  my  soul ; 
Brinj?  Thy  salvation  near ; 
"When  will  Thy  hand  release  my  feet 
Out  of  the  deadly  snare  ? 

3  When  shall  the  sovereign  grace 

Of  my  forgiving  God 
Restore  me  from  those  dangerous  ways 
My  wandering  feet  have  trod  ? 

4  0,  keep  my  soul  from  death. 

Nor  put  my  hope  to  shame; 
For  I  -have  placed  my  only  trust 
In  my  Redeemer's  name.

The  triune  God  shall  be 
Our  song  while  life  is  given, 

And  the  unceasing  praise  shall  nm 
Through  all  the  days  of  heaven.

1  Thk  Spirit,  In  our  hearts, 

Is  whispering,  **Sii\ner,  come;" 
The  bride,  tlie  church  of  Christ,  proclaims 
To  all  His  children,  Come. 

2  Let  him  that  heareth  say 

To  all  abfiut  him.  Come  ! 
Let  him  that  thirsts  for  righteousness 
To  Cbruit  the  Fountain,  come. 


TS  Yes,  wTiosocTcr  inn, 

O,  let  him  freely  cotne, 
And  freely  drink  the  stream  of  life; 
'Tis  Jesus  bids  him  come. 

4  Lo,  Jesus,  who  invites. 

Declares,  "  I  quickly  come ; " 
Lord,  even  so ;  1  wait  Thy  hour ; 
Jesus,  my  Saviour,  come  t

1  There  is  a  Fountain  filled  with  blood. 

Drawn  from  Immanuel's  reins  ; 
And  sinners,  plunged  beneath  that  flood. 
Lose  all  their  guilty  stains. 

2  The  dying  thief  rejoiced  to  see 

That  Fountain  in  his  day; 

And  there  have  I,  as  vile  as  he. 

Washed  all  my  sins  away. 

3  Dear  dying  Lamb,  Thy  precious  bloo^ 

Shall  never  lose  its  power. 
Till  all  the  ransomed  church  of  God 
Be  saved,  to  sin  no  more. 

4  E'er  since,  by  faith,  I  saw  the  stream 

Thy  flowing  wounds  supply. 
Redeeming  love  has  been  my  theme. 
And  shall  be,  till  I  die. 

6  Then  in  a  nobler,  sweeter  song, 

I'll  sing  Thy  power  to  save, 
•   "When  this  poor  lisping,  stamm'fering  tongue 

Lies  silent  in  the  grave.
